What you like LEAST about each Halloween film

Sorry Ron but I decided to shamelessly steal your idea but do it in reverse!

Since it was interesting to see what everyone liked about each film I figured I’d play the protagonist and get the opposite side!

Just keep it fun, this isn’t to intentionally bash anyone. We are all going to have different likes/dislikes and that’s all cool.

H1 - The fact that all the unseen footage Billy Kirkus has may never be seen on an official released version! :imp:
H2 - Inconsistency problems.
H3 - No MIchael! Still a good movie.
H4 - I wasn’t a fan of the ending like most are.
H5 - HORRIBLE director and rushed script.
H6 - The storyline was hit and miss and drifted too far from the original feel of the franchise.
H7 - Could have been SO MUCH better but instead appeared to be made largely to stroke Jamie Lee Curtis’ ego.
H8 - Once you watch the first 15 minutes the rest is garbage.
H9 - This movie tried to make Michael more “human” rather than a force with intent that was not clearly known.
H10 - The WHITE HORSE, visions of “little Mikey”, Ghost mommy. UGH!!!

H1 - No matter how close The Shape gets to Laurie, He always seems to get “further away.”
H2 - The fact they felt the need to scale down certain sets to compensate for Warlock’s height :confused:
H3 - No Michael - but still loved it as a separate entity.
H4 - Brady obviously does NOT know how to use a shotgun :laughing:
H5 - Almost everything, but mainly that annoying blonde haired dude.
H6 - Where the frak is Lindsey?! Oh, & the “time warp.”
H7 - So, we just forget about Jamie?!
H8 - BUSTA…nuff said!
RZ Remake - How does Daeg get THAT big in an institution & why doesn’t Michael already have a beard…last I heard, there are no gyms in state mental institutions & they certainly won’t let potentially harmful people use razors.
RZ H2 Remake - That frakking horse - but I do have a sense of humor about it, even have a white-horse proudly displayed next to my Deluxe Scarred :mrgreen:

H1- ummm. Cigarette smoke drifting off the camera? Not many problems here.
H2- Just a few errors from the recap
H3- Should of called it just “Season of the Witch”
H4- “Uber” Michael, shoving shotguns up in your gut and the thumb through the forehead.
H5- That Mask…ugh.
H6- Confusing dumb storyline. Original Michael is now fully dead.
H7- His eyes were shot out in H2, no burn marks. Not a big fan of the mask either, mostly hated the KNB mask. Set in Cali.
H8- The mask, the plot, Busta Rhymes…
RZH1- The overall feeling is dirty, I didn’t feel much Halloween going on. He was a monster not a human. Too much blood…
RZH2- Haven’t seen it but watched a few clips, the white horse and his mom…

H1 - I like it all
H2 - I like it all
H3 - The whole Stonehenge thing was just too out there.
H4- I like it all
H5 - The storyline was shallow, and hackneyed.
H6 - The cult crap sucked
H7 - Josh Hartnett
H8 - Everything after the opening scene
RZH1 - How they blew through Halloween night
RZH2 - Everything sucked

H1- wanted to see maybe a few minutes of michael behind walls, and some more michael cam
H2-i wanted some more background on michael, like when loomis started talking about him, i wanted more flashbacks like the one laurie had in the hospital of visiting michael, and he turned around and grilled her lol that was one of my favorite scenes
H3-no michael, but still whatever
H4-the mask was good minus the brows, completely made him not serious looking, not scary at all, but it was an enjoyable movie
H5-felt rushed, but i enjoyed it
H6-way to much to list, but at least the mask was descent
H20-the first mask, the lack of carpenters music, the way the kills happened was awkward maybe bcs of the music
H8-everything passed the intro
RZH1-no original music, slow at times, shitty acting, white trash, didn’t like the grossness of kid michael, felt like his rage was unnecessary and simply stupid, unlike in the original where the promiscuous people are the ones who get killed as carpenter said in an interview, not that michael is a boondock saint but he seemed like a quiet clean cut kid who’s rage was unknown but severe, and RZ’s was twisted white trash and sloppy, the woods scene when Michael’s young is completely unbelievable, beat someone to death with a rotten stick??
RZH2-white horse, visions, horrible overacting, but michael fucked shit up so it made up for it

These are great threads…another good one, Benny!

H1 - The day to night transition is the biggest bother I’ve had for this movie. Secondly, the 15 second romp sessions at the beginning, and with Bob and Lynda. Other than that, the original film is, in my eyes, pitch perfect.

H2 - The seven-shot mess-up (although fixed for the TV versions) and Alice’s un-needed scene at the beginning. Also, I wished Laurie would have been a bit more “present” in the film, although I do like the idea of her being drugged up, creating a larger obstacle for her to overcome.

H3 - At first it was the story-line, that didn’t have Myers in it. But I’m not too fond of Stonehenge and the logic surrounding different time-zones around the world.

H4 - Michael’s hulkiness and hockey pads and wiping out an entire police station. How? Also, ain’t he blind? And the mask was a bit disappointing when I first viewed this movie. Also, the music didn’t seem to be up to par with the first two films, although it has grown on me significantly throughout the the years.

H5 - One word. Billy. That kid pissed me off, and the fact that Jamie couldn’t speak. LAME. And of course, the introduction of the Man in Black. Double LAME. And the mask…This is where he problems really started for the franchise.

H6 - Killing off Jamie. That was stupid. Why couldn’t it have been her and Tommy and Loomis ganging up to take on Myers? And the Thorn plot, in both versions, was never properly explained. They threw it in there, and then decided to kinda let it just linger in the background. And of course, the mass murder in the operating room. What the hell were clinical psychologists doing operating on people? Made absolutely no sense.

H20 - Setting it in California, the absence of Howarth’s electronic music (although I always wanted to hear an orchestral version of the Halloween theme), and the biggest problem…No Loomis.

Resurrection - Killing Laurie within 10 minutes of the movie’s opening, rendering the rest of this one pointless.

RZ/H1 - ASide from MOST of this movie rubbing me the wrong way, I think it was a colossal mistake to have michael talk after his first kill. He should have been mute from then on, and it would have been creepy.

Rz/H2 - the thing I like least about this movie is the fact that it was made.

H1- Laurie keeps dropping that damn knife!!! All the goof ups.
H2- Continuity errors, no popped collar on the coveralls (different coveralls!?!?), small knife or scalpel instead of a Lamson, JLC’s wig, and as good as he is Dick Warlock is no Nick Castle.
H3- SHAPELESS.
H4- No JLC, I really wanted to see Michael’s face, the mask looks like a Crash Test Dummy, the ending was stolen from F13 part 5.
H5- The mask has a trout mouth, the goofy music when the cops show up, the Man in Black, The Myers House looked like a castle/mansion, inconclusive and lame ending.
H6- No build up to suspense, the storyline is so unbelievable (the Strode family living in the Myers House), the guy who played Michael in the end, the last time we see Dr. Loomis.
H20- Skipping the whole H4-H6 storyline was a slap in the face to us fans.
H7- Everything after the first 15 minutes.
RZ H1- Michael is white trash, mother was a stripper, Michael returning to Haddonfield was rushed.
RZ H2- The white horse, Sheri Moon Zombie, the mask getting ripped.

H1- Tommy was too slow to open up the door for Laurie
H2- Laurie’s flash back to young Michael
H3- Just about everything
H4- The mask
H5- Danielle Harris not being able to speak
H6- The plot
H7- The setting of the movie
H8- The house
H9- Not enough young Michael
H10- That damn white horse and constant scenes with his mom and himself as a young kid

Nothing wrong w/H1
H2 drags on a bit in certain parts
H4 I too didn’t like the ending, although the movie has a great HalloweeN vibe
H5 waste of time and to many screams
H6 the whole cult deal, although again this movie too has a great HalloweeN vibe
H7 didn’t feel like Halloween
H8 hated it all
RZH1 the language and white trash
RZH2 LOL

H1 - The fact that all the unseen footage Billy Kirkus has may never be seen on an official released version! :imp:
H2 -just a few errors.
H3 - No Michael!
H4 - The mask… the movie poster shows a different version…
H5 - HORRIBLE
H6 The Thorn CACA!!!
H7 - No Loomis… changing the mask constantly… the ending…
H8 - Killing Laurie…garbage.
H9 - Sucked
H10- White Horse… the whole movie Sucked

H1 - More extras on the DVD please.

H2 - Need the missing Rosenthal footage.

H3 - No Michael but a good movie.

H4 - What?! No DW?? Could’ve been better if they had a bigger budget. Would have love to see the burning house climax on the roof scene. A little too rushed…

H5 - Bad director,bad story, bad characters,bad,bad,bad! Michael behind bars with his mask on?? Some kind of joke??

H6 - Was the whole Thorn idea necessary?? Should have brought Danielle back without the idea of killing off Jamie. Maybe an idea of having Tommy and Jamie teaming up would’ve been better…

H7 - Bad camera work!!! Very BAD!!!This guy doesn’t know how to film the Shape if his life depended on it. Bad music. Too many masks. I hate the ending. Can’t they get anything right??

H8 -Busta Rhymes,Busta Rhymes and Busta Rhymes. The whole plot was bad. Bad characters.

H9 -Michael is the Shape not a family man.

H1- Nothing to dislike about this movie
H2- Nothing to dislike about this movie
H3- Nothing to dislike about this movie
H4- everything
H5- everything
H6- everything
H7- everything but Curtis
H8- everything
H9- everything
H10- Hadnt seen it, No comment

That’s pretty much a summary of all the movies right there. haha

Quite honestly, this is the brutal truth when it comes down to it.
I’d be surprised if JC himself even liked anything besides H1.

Unfortunately, I have seen the H2 remake, I’ll finish your list for you…

H10 - everything
